Hey, that's cool, which channel is it? :)

In Princess Maker 2 the princess in question can get married in some of the endings.

I stand corrected.

Marriage is simply a possibility in this game (and a political tool, as it's a politics game). You can end up married to a creepy old dude, engaged with a child, alone, in a same-sex relationship...
Unless it was modified recently? None of my playthrough seemed focused on the point. It is brought up by several bachelor nobles since you are a single queen, but not a central theme.

Well if you're going to count games where marriage occurs even at the last second like FFIV, you'll want to include Ken's ending in Street Fighter II, although you don't really get to know his fiancee in that game. Let's see... the Momoko 120% "series" follows a young girl from elementary school to her wedding years later?

How are we on the subject of engagements that aren't resolved by the end of the game? Shining Force 2 ends with your character (Bowie) engaged to the princess.

Been a bit since I last played it, but who you are and aren't promised to, plays a significant role in the game. And if I remember correctly, just about every successful ending states the resulting marital status as well as whether you bear a child.

Of course if you don't raise certain skills, you can be quite oblivious to the meaning behind these gifts and potential suiters, but either way, who you are and aren't with plays a major role throughout the game.

SID MEIERS PIRATES 2004 REMAKE!

Not only weddings, but dancing with waifu, too! (waifu=lucrative gossip, bonus!!!)

I think the person who mentioned Divine Divinity meant Divinity: Dragon Commander, because you can marry in that game. All I've found searching for marriage in DD is this, which suggests that the most you can do is get engaged: http://lparchive.org/Divine-Divinity/Update%20101/

Awakening is the only one currently localized in English that allows you to marry during the campaign. The rest either feature characters already married (Calill and Largo in Path of Radiance) or who are revealed to have married after the events of the game in the little post-credits writeups about their later exploits. Seisen no Keifu (definitely, like you mentioned) and Fates (allegedly) have marriage as well, though neither are officially localized yet. Not that it changes anything, mind you; I'm just clarifying because I love to ramble on about the series.

I believe that was Max Payne you were thinking of.

It occurs to me that numerous MMOs have marriage features between in-game characters. We could probably list those all day. The only one I can name off the top of my head is FFXIV, but I know they're just absolutely everywhere.

I found it amusing that your wife and children in King's Bounty are essentially equipment. It fit the silly tone of the game.

Thankfully, you're never obligated to suppress them.

Regardless, OP's question is for games where marriage is an option. So there should be no "possibly" either way, because marriage definitely is an option there.

Most of the games on the list can be played with or without marrying.

You can't actually get married in Divine Divinity. If you're male, there's a questline to win the heart of an elf princess, but it doesn't actually go anywhere. You get a kiss, that's all.

Indeed, I chose my wife solely on the stats she gave me. For a good bonus I would have married a zombie. Oh, wait...

Thanks for clearing it up. I aa fairly familiar with the game and wondered why I never it and felt bit sad I didn't.


That's true hero there. What other hero is willing to marry zombie, dump her for actual frog, then leave teh frog behind to marry ugly dwarf woman only to seduce crazy demoness later.

That f@!ng minigame was the reason i ended up hateing that game.

That sounds like a great plot for a movie!
